Lella [English translation]

Do you remember Lella, that rich one?

The wife of Proietti, the tie maker?

That guy who has his shop on Tritone street.

Do you remember her? I showed her to you

Four years ago, and you couldn't believe

That she was sleeping with me.

Do you remember that she disappeared?

And that people, and that the police

Believed that she had run away

With someone who had more money than her husband...

[Chorus]

And I want to tell you, that it was me!

It's been four years that I've kept this secret.

I want to tell you, but don't let anyone know...

Don't tell anyone, keep it to yourself!

She liked to go to the sea when it was winter,

To make love even if it was so cold,

But she never took off her stockings.

Near the stream, where there's that bar

Among fishing nets and abandoned boats,

With a gray sky acting like a roof for us.

A morning, it was the last day of the year

She tells me, with an indifferent face,

"I'm bored of it, we'll make nothing out of this.

And close my dress' zipper..."

[Chorus]

And I want to tell you, that it was me!

It's been four years that I've kept this secret.

I want to tell you, but don't let anyone know...

Don't tell anyone, keep it to yourself!

You won't believe me, I saw red.

I grabbed her throat, and I never stopped.

And when she fell to the ground, breatheless,

From the sky, a sunbeam broke through,

And I was burying her with these hands,

Careful not to get my suit dirty.

I left without looking back,

I have no regrets, and now I even go back there.

But I don't think about who's down there,

I just go back there to look at the sea!

[Chorus]

And I want to tell you, that it was me!

It's been four years that I've kept this secret.

I want to tell you, but don't let anyone know...

Don't tell anyone, keep it to yourself!

Keep it to yourself! Keep it to yourself!
